This phone is really awesome
Mai2sam, 27 Jun 2020I have never had an ios phone and heard so much about it and want try one, is this a good one... moreI'll advise you to wait for the iphone 12, almost the same price as the SE 2020 but with tons of extra features
I have never had an ios phone and heard so much about it and want try one, is this a good one to buy if am not sure I'll like Ios?
I have an p30, I got it last year,
I just want to know is this a good phone to try Ios out, to see if I like it or not or should I buy the A71 cause it look pretty cool and don't bother with Ios at all?

I picked mine up because of size and price as my first "smart phone" and technically, it seems to live up to the hype. However, I have to caution ANYBODY getting this as their FIRST smart phone: Don't Expect Any Directions On Use. I was amazed at the complete lack of concern from Apple for first time users. Their website is a maze of slick marketing, and lacks the basic organization to find things easily. Their assumption is that you already know all about smart phones, or why would you buy one? I finally had tech support (a kindly soul) refer me to Utube to get the basics of phone operation. The company that sold me a 400.00 phone can't afford basic operating instructions, and wants 3.99 for the privilege of downloading instructions. If you're new to this process and smart phones in general, you better know someone who has the time to help you through the basics because you certainly won't get any assistance from Apple.

YouNite., 16 Jun 2020Oh yay. We have 2 sides of people here, people who like the phone, and the people who hate it.... moreI got actually confused when watching reviews about this phone. It puts flagship specs on the table but brutally takes away one vital aspect expected from the cheapest of budget phones: a decent battery!!!
The shear fact that it has such a miserable battery life makes this phone out of question.
I think GSMarena's battery test has the most credibility bcoz all of those Youtubers out there drain the battery in one mode only: screen-on time (SoT) .
Letting the phone run a game or play a video with the screen on has its merit but doesn't even tell half of the story. It's a phone, it must be connected to the network.
The four-hour video playback doesn't sound all bad. But add this to a power-hungry network connection and then do the math!
256GB Black iPhone SE (2020)
Bought it Online On My Birthday May 27th 2020, It’s Simply The Best 4.7” Inch iPhone, It’s Like an Ferrari Engine in an Toyota. So Powerful, So Fast, So Good, Excellent Camera From The XR, Amazing Brain Speeds From The iPhone 11 Pro & The Beautiful Body From The iPhone 8. Now Comes I’m Pure Black, Sexy Red & Snow White. I’m So Happy Got This (2020) iPhone SE & Seriously I Love The Home Sweet Home Button Touch ID, So Fast, And Easy To Hold in One Hand, Battery is Giving Me 2 Days (Depending On The Settings) I Will Give This 9.5 Out of 10. 0.5 mark is Only the Screen Was an Tiny Bit Bigger. Other Than That. It’s The PERFECT iPhone Ever Made
Oh yay. We have 2 sides of people here, people who like the phone, and the people who hate it. Here is **my opinion** on it.
Speed - What more do I have to say? A13 on 720p screen. Simply amazing. 9.5/10
Display - But...that’s where the fun ends. A 720p screen with ancient bezels, LCD and 60hz. This is quite bad in 2020 and honestly this is literally an insult. However, the brightness is decent and the ancient bezels are needed to bring back that home button (and Touch ID). Overall, 3.5/10.
Camera - First of all this is a single camera, so no ultra wide, telephoto or depth sensor. Second, wow, this is actually quite good. Good photos with nice dynamic range, however not-so-good photos in the night. But you get THE BEST video at this price point (4K60 with OIS). Camera is 7/10 (no multiple lenses is a bummer) and video is a 9/10.
Battery - Painful. Painful. Painful. In MrWhoseTheBoss’s battery test, it got a measly 4 hours of SoT and in this review, it got a 59hr endurance rating. For comparison, the S10e got 83 hours. The charging speeds aren’t any better - a 5W charger comes in the box. 2/10, only saving grace being wireless charging.
Audio and build quality - These are pretty good- of course, coming from Apple. The audio is great and the device has IP67 water resistance and a very nice build. 8/10
Wrap up - The iPhone SE is a weird device. It’s for a person who:
- wants a compact phone
- wants iOS on a budget
- isn’t super techy.
- wants the best speed at the lowest price
- needs a good camera at the lowest price
If you’re none of these, the iPhone SE is probably not for you. If it is, let’s consider some more options before you swipe that credit card.
- Samsung Galaxy S10e, better screen, way better battery life, an extra ultra wide camera and is still compact. My personal pick if you want a compact phone. Worse video and speed (although they still are pretty good).
- Huawei P40 Lite, better screen WAY WAY better battery life, and 3 more cameras. But - no GMS, which is a big bummer.
- OnePlus 7T, this phone has gone down in price so so much, and is honestly way better than all the other phones right here. Not compact though, so do keep that in mind.
- A bunch of Xiaomi and Realme phones (none of which are compact though).
Overall, the iPhone SE is really a niche option. Good but not amazing. There are better options for compact phones and phones at this price point. But it can still hold its own with its speed, video and audio.
Thanks for reading. If you disagree that’s ok, just reply and we can discuss.
my SE was 3yrs already and still on ios 10.3, but i really dont have a complain of how still smooth it was, it even fall to salty water and camera doesnt change like my android phones, i was planning to buy the 2020 version but i was still dissapointed of the battery,i love how handy it was to my hands.
JDK, 04 Jun 2020who in the 90% of population cares about native file manager?There is one. App called files. When you download file in program api you can save it to files app. From there you have the possibility to share or use any other app to open.

JDK, 27 May 2020You know what? There is no point in arguing in you android fanbois. All you guys do is support... moreBecause you're ignorant at keeping up at both iOS and Android's developments over the years. Simplest example; which iOS version finally had a lol ffs A FILE MANAGER??? That's right iOS 11 (2017)... a good TWO YEARS AFTER Android 6.0 Marshmallow (2015) had its own native file manager.
And don't even get me started on notifications..... even a UI implementation from China called MIUI beat iOS by YEARS.
Apparently without Android, iOS' dev team can't even figure out which core features to bake in.
I think this is an offense to the costumers!
hijack 00 first, 01 Jun 2020Hi all! I think the best small phone now. But.You need to know that there are a lot of bugs ... moreApple doesn't lag at all.
Hi all!
I think the best small phone now.
But.You need to know that there are a lot of bugs in apple phones.
If you open a lot of pages, play games, net, etc. then the system lags. The bluetooth system is underdeveloped, it connects slowly, and sometimes when you make a phone call, it's not the headset but the phone, in which case you can't hear the other person, but he can hear you.(on I7, Motoz2force - weird but not on S6edge hihi)
My motorola z2 has a super function of the home button, e.g. left-drag-back, right-drag -apps, but here you can't add any features-simple and primitive.
On the other hand, I love it along with its flaws, and it’s not even worth looking for the perfect one in it.
64Gb-450 is the price that beats everything.
Here's the solution for the battery for example:
